Su Banxia stayed with Su Shiyan and the others in the house for a while longer, then went to the courtyard to have dinner and went to bed.

the next morning,

Wang Guihua then took Su Banxia and Su Mo to the village head's house.

Is the village head home?

As soon as Su Banxia knocked on the door, Aunt Ning came out yawning and opened it. Seeing Su Banxia outside, her expression immediately brightened.

"Banxia, ​​what brings you here? Are you here to ask our Mandun to go out and play?"

Su Banxia quickly waved her hand and said:

"No, Aunt Ning, actually I came here today to ask the village head for help. You know that the matter between Su Feng and Su Mo has been making headlines a few days ago. I won't lie to you, we just came to ask the village head to act as a witness, thinking of going to Su Feng's house together to break off the engagement."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Ning quickly stepped aside and said to Su Banxia and Wang Guihua:

"Oh, so that's what it was about. Come in quickly, I'll go call your uncle."

Su Banxia smiled and nodded to Aunt Ning, then led Wang Guihua and the others into the courtyard.

Aunt Ning called out to the house.

"Master, come out quickly, Banxia needs to see you!"

After saying that, Aunt Ning turned around and went into the kitchen to serve tea to Su Banxia and the others.

Su Banxia hurriedly called out to Aunt Ning:

"Aunt Ning, please don't bother. We'll just sit for a bit and then we'll be leaving."

Aunt Ning smiled and went into the kitchen to bring out the tea.

"Oh, Banxia, ​​don't be so polite with your aunt. Come over often when you have time, and make yourself at home. Mandun from our family doesn't have much to do right now, so you two can spend more time together."

Hearing Aunt Ning's words, Wang Guihua was secretly delighted. It seemed that Aunt Ning had taken a liking to her eldest daughter. If it were her eldest daughter, and she could marry into the village and the village head's son, that would be perfect.

Thinking this way, Wang Guihua and Aunt Ning became more friendly.

“Auntie, stop working and sit down and rest for a while. If your Mandun has nothing to do, he should come and visit us more often. These young people get along well and should be encouraged to get along.”

Aunt Ning became even more attentive after hearing this.

"Who says otherwise? Banxia is quite capable. I often tell Mandun to get to know Banxia better so he can learn something useful from her."

Wang Guihua was about to reply when Su Banxia nudged her a few times under the table.

“Aunt Ning, what are you saying? Mandun is a few years older than me, he definitely knows more than I do. What do I have to teach him? Besides, it’s almost busy time right now, Mandun has to take care of things at home, and I have a lot of work to do too, I don’t have time to go sightseeing.”

As they were talking, the village head also came out of the house.

"Banxia, ​​Sister-in-law Guihua, you've arrived."

Su Banxia quickly stood up and nodded, saying:

"Village head, we were hoping you could be our witness today. This marriage between our family and Su Feng was arranged by my grandmother without our second branch of the family's knowledge, and she secretly arranged it with Su Feng's mother. Now Su Feng has come to our house demanding his wife back."

As she spoke, Su Banxia glanced at Su Mo, who was bowing her head and remaining silent.

“My sister would rather die than marry Su Feng, so we’ve scraped together the betrothal money and want to break off the engagement with him today. With you here to watch, I’m sure Su Feng won’t be able to cause any trouble.”

The village head nodded upon hearing this.

"Su Feng may not be afraid of others, but he is somewhat wary of me."

As he spoke, the village head looked at Wang Guihua.

"Logically speaking, this is your own family matter, and as the village head, I shouldn't get too involved. I won't say anything about where we go. You just need to explain things clearly to Su Feng. I'm sure he won't force your daughter to marry him. I'll just be there to witness things."

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua slapped her thigh violently.

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what we meant. We'll have to trouble you, village head, to make the trip with us."

Aunt Ning, who was standing to the side, glanced at Su Banxia and quickly pushed the village head to speak:

"Oh, no need to be so polite. This is our own family matter. He should go and mediate. Hurry up and go, or you'll be too late and no one will be home."

The village head glared at Aunt Ning, then spoke to Wang Guihua and the others:

"Then let's hurry up and go."

After saying that, Su Banxia and the others led a few people to Su Feng's house. As soon as they arrived at Su Feng's door, they bumped into Su Feng, who was about to leave.

Su Feng looked up and met Su Mo's terrified eyes.

"Su Mo, you're all better now! I was just about to come find you!"

As he spoke, Su Feng stepped forward and reached out to grab Su Mo's arm. Su Mo was so startled that she took several steps back.

"Don't touch me!"

"You're my wife now, why won't you let me touch you?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua quickly shielded Su Mo behind her.

"Su Feng, who are you calling your wife? You shameless beast, don't you dare slander my daughter's reputation."

Upon hearing this, Su Feng spat on the ground.

"Bah! Your family even accepted my betrothal gifts, and now you're going back on your word? Let me tell you, it's too late!"

As he spoke, Su Feng shoved Wang Guihua aside.

"Su Mo is my wife, and no matter what you say, it won't matter!"

Ignoring Su Mo's resistance, Su Feng grabbed Su Mo's arm and tried to pull her into his arms.

Seeing this, Su Banxia quickly went to help Wang Guihua.

"Su Feng, don't go too far. We're here today to return your betrothal gifts. You think you can marry your daughter with just one tael of silver? There's no such thing as a free lunch."

Seeing this, the village head glared at Su Feng.

"Su Feng, let's get down to business. Don't resort to violence all the time."

Su Feng had been so focused on looking at Su Mo that he felt a little intimidated when he saw the village head was also there.

"Village head, what brings you here too?"

The village head glanced at Su Feng.

Aren't you going to invite us in to talk?

Su Feng nodded hurriedly.

"Alright, come in and talk."

As he spoke, Su Feng glanced at Su Banxia with displeasure.

"You may come in as well. You can talk, but forget about announcing the engagement."

After speaking, Su Feng gave Su Mo a deep look, then turned and went into the courtyard.

Wang Guihua sighed helplessly, then pulled Su Mo into the courtyard.

Aunt Sun was drying green beans in the yard when she saw people coming. She quickly put down her work and came out to greet them.

"Oh my, village head, what brings you here today? You're a rare guest!"

He then glanced at Wang Guihua and Su Mo following behind him and said unhappily:

"What are you doing here? You caused such a scene the other day, making our family lose face because of you. You are truly shameless. I don't know what my stupid son saw in you that made him so infatuated with you!"
